I'm going to see if I can get more info in other threds, but here is the question. How could one give the option to listen to music while browsing? I have been to some MP3 websites. At MP3.com, when I clicked on a link to listen to music, the browser (IE6) asked if I wanted to play the music in my Media Bar. Clicking yes, the media bar opened from the right of the browser and began playing the music and I was allowed to continue browsing. Is there a way I can force this to occure no matter what type of media file is being presented? Understandably, this won't work in Netscape and/or Mac bowsers. .:TUCK:.
 
That is a function of the browser which is controlled by Windows, not a script on a page. There is no script you can put in your HTML code to do it. The reason it opens when you click a media file is because IE6 is programmed to do so. Sorry!
